Chile Embraces Harm Reduction – A Smarter Path to Tobacco Control
Chile's Law No. 21.642 recognizes harm reduction benefits of vaping and nicotine pouches, adopting smart regulations unlike neighboring countries. The law separates novel products from tobacco, limiting nicotine content at 45 mg/ml, contrasting the EU's 20 mg/ml cap. Other Latin American nations like Argentina, Venezuela, and Mexico lean towards prohibition despite evidence showing vaping is safer than smoking. Argentina's ineffective ban contradicts policies allowing other nicotine products, while Venezuela's restrictions haven't reduced smoking rates. Mexico's recent ban on e-cigarettes and fentanyl aims to tackle public health concerns. These examples illustrate the debate between ideology and evidence-based regulations in harm reduction strategies.
